I love peanut butter, avocado and oatmeal. Not together of course, but nearly any recipe that calls for these ingredients I'll probably enjoy. I have the misfortune of living with some food sensitivities but the extreme fortune of knowing what those sensitivities are - gluten (only mild, thank goodness), nightshades, lactose, and refined sugar. I'm not a formally trained chef, but I love cooking (and eating!) delicious, guilt-free food. I'm a fitness model, certified nutrition coach, trainer and an IFBB pro bikini athlete... and I eat 6 times a day. When I'm not in the kitchen preparing something extraordinary, I'm - in the gym, rushing off to an audition, at a photo shoot, studying nutrition, or planning a vacation. Hope you enjoy my site!

McDonald’s. Cinnabon. Subway. Applebees. Pf Changs. Starbucks. General Mills. Ruth’s Chris? Yes, they are all doing it. They are all serving you genetically modified wheat, corn, and soy products that are super inflammatory, super fattening, and super addictive. Overpopulation is a real…

I grabbed lunch in Silverlake this weekend, after teaching my Fryman Canyon BodyBlast group training. Between Thursday and Saturday I hiked the Fryman 3 mile loop 4 times, for a total of 12 miles! I was in the mood for…

I’ve burned my hands countless times the past few months. I wonder if it’s because I’m a relatively new chef. Well, I’ve cooked my food for years, but I’ve never cooked with a purpose (other than getting my calories in),…

Being out of the country for several months definitely made me realize how important food is in my life. I mean, I like pretty much all cuisines from different cultures; Indian, Thai, and all things Latin being my favorites (and…
